Inauguration of Ogrindo ITB’s New Office Space

In April 2025, Ogrindo ITB proudly announced the completion of the renovation of its new office space , located in the Petroleum Engineering Building at Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB). This renovation project was part of a strategic initiative aimed at improving both comfort and productivity for all Ogrindo team members in supporting academic and research activities. Situated on the second floor, the office has been redesigned with a more modern, clean, and functional layout.

The primary goal of this renovation was to create a more inspiring and enjoyable work environment that fosters a strong sense of collaboration among team members. During this revitalization process, various furnishings and interior elements were updated, including the replacement of old furniture with new pieces, reorganization of the room layout, and the addition of aesthetic features such as warmer lighting and calming color schemes. This combination not only delivers a modern and elegant look but also strengthens Ogrindo’s image as one of ITB’s most active and innovative student organizations.

The newly renovated Ogrindo office is now equipped with a variety of facilities that support organizational activities. These include a dedicated meeting room furnished with a set of ergonomic chairs and a table, a TV screen for digital presentations, and a large whiteboard for brainstorming project ideas or research discussions. Wooden accents and ornamental plants placed throughout the room also help create a warmer, more refreshing atmosphere—offering a comfortable, homey feel while maintaining a professional tone.

At the front of the office, there is a shared workspace featuring several desks and chairs that can be used for individual tasks or informal discussions. The room also prominently displays the Ogrindo name and emblem, emphasizing that the space is officially designated for the organization’s activities. This visual identity not only serves as a symbol of pride but also fosters a strong sense of belonging among team members.

Miftah Hidayat, S.T., M.Sc., Ph.D., representing Ogrindo, expressed his gratitude and pride regarding the completion of the renovation, which took approximately three months. He noted that the final results exceeded expectations in terms of aesthetics, comfort, and functionality. “We hope that with the completion of this renovation, the team’s enthusiasm and morale will continue to grow, the work atmosphere will become more conducive, and overall productivity will keep improving,” he stated.

With the successful completion of this renovation, the Ogrindo ITB office is expected to become not only a place to workbut also a space to grow, gather, and innovate —driven by a shared passion for contributing to the university and the wider community.
